The re-regulation of the exercise of the authority of the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia, which has been known to you, and the declaration of the Ministry of State for Bohemia and Mähren, which was made in this connection, as a new supreme authority, require the sighting of an independent section for my area of separation. Ieh had informed the head of your department IA, Ministerial Director Dr. Kluge, of his visit in the past weeks of my wishes for this. The details have been discussed in detail by means of detailed notes in a meeting between your gentlemen and my clerks. Ieh may assume that Ministerial Director Kluge will be giving you a presentation on this shortly and would like to inform you very briefly of the fundamental points of view which I had raised in my proposals.
